Alor Komodo Photo Workshop

One of the big reasons why Alor and Komodo are such suitable destinations for snorkeling photography workshops is that each destination offers us something very unique as underwater photographers, not to mention that each location is outrageously beautiful. In Alor we will be surrounded by vast shallow coral plateaus, walls, and sloping reefs where we'll have the opportunity to explore and understand the nuances of wide-angle underwater photography. Not only that, but just in front of Alami Alor Resort- our host resort for the duration of our stay- is an outstanding house reef where critters like nudibranchs, a myriad of lionfish species, cuttlefish, and really rare species, like mandarin fish, call home. With untethered access to this house reef and its inhabitants, we'll really be able to spend our time learning how to capture beautiful fish portraits and up-close macro shots. Komodo, on the other hand, combines many of the same wide-angle opportunities we will have had in Alor- stunning shallow coral reefs and a house reef teeming with marine life big and small-with opportunities to encounter big fish and turtles. Komodo is one of Indonesia's oldest protected marine reserves, and as a result, the area is home to a robust population of manta rays, several species of sea turtle and reef shark, and large schools of big fish up in the shallows. Given this quintessential combination of vast reef systems and marine life, we will switch gears a bit and start focusing more on how to photograph these larger marine subjects, but also how to approach species like mantas and turtles so as to preserve the interaction for as long as possible, giving us the best opportunities to capture these beautiful marine giants.

► Full test in Special Issue N°24 Forever Green: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/max-44sc-hybrid-to-port-electric-to-starboard ► Despite its relatively traditional appearance, the MaxCruise 44 SC is hiding a few surprises! What’s different about this catamaran is its asymmetrical hybrid powertrain, combining safety and energy efficiency. This propulsion system has been tested over a 10,000-mile journey from Vietnam all the way to France. The hull of the Max 44SC has very fine-entry bows, which we found to guarantee a remarkable glide through the water in light airs, while its intelligently laid-out deck hardware facilitates short-handed maneuvering and contributes to making this model a very seaworthy multihull. This is a wonderful surprise that is shaking up the market standards and will soon be improved even further, as the shipyard has just announced the Max 45 SC, a revised and updated version of the 44 that will be able to carry a heavier load for blue water cruising. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Builder: Max Cruise Marine Length: 43’ (13.1 m) Waterline length: 42’ (12.8 m) Beam: 23’11” (7.3 m) Draft: 21”/5’10” or 3’10” (0.54/1.77 m or 1.16 m) Displacement: 16,975 lbs (7.7 t) Upwind sail area: 1,059 sq ft (98.4 m2) Mainsail: 732 sq ft (68 m2) Self-tacking solent: 327 sq ft (30.4 m2) Gennaker: 840 sq ft (78 m2) Engines: 2 x 25 HP outboards or 2 x 30 HP inboards ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!
